Humidity?

We are having an incredibly wet summer. Rained 20 days in June, July is just as bad if not worst. Rain predicted everyday for the next week. I want to start varnishing the boat but am concerned about having the finish end up cloudy. Have read post about such results. Is there a humidity level that is the cut off point for varnishing? I have a coat of epoxy on the hull inside and out but it has been sanded through in places (fitting bottom ect.).

I used that book as a reference for determining good days/temps/times to varnish...
I lucked out and had some relatively cool dry days this spring though that I just knew were fine to varnish..
If it feels too muggy - it probably is.

Hey Jason. Cleared off Sunday so got the second coat of epoxy on the sides. Started finishing the seats. Unusal summer. We don't usually get this much rain. Good for the trout. Haven't been fishing, Only had the flyrod out twice. Just the boat. Did take a long walk in my woods with the Otsego County Land Trust. Going to put my land in the trust. Saw a vulture nest. For two years they've had chicks under my cabin. Note the "Food" on the ground.
